¿Que narices ha pasado?
This looks like
¿Que demonios ha pasado?
OR
¿Que diablos ha pasado?
but I can't for the life of me think why to use nariz here.
Maybe it's like "comer como una lima" and is just weird (eat like a file)
Gracias.

Maybe it's a less vulgar way to express frustration.
Like, I say "Rats!" or "Fiddlesticks!" instead of other more vulgar words.

It does... and it is.
There is a very long list of expressions using "narices", most of them suggesting annoying feelings. I recommend that you check
